Triptych experiments

This a triptych i made of my dad doing movements while watching football.  I had the shutter speed to about 2.5 seconds to take these photos as the lighting wasn't that great.  I also put each photo into Photoshop and edited them with adding more contrast to them and also cropping them.

This is just me editing one of the photographs in Photoshop.

In this triptych of my father watching football I thought about how someone that loves football as much as my dad is so passive whilst watching the game so I looked up, John Goto who exagerates his images with the things he gets his actors to do, whilst the context being political and important.  I specifically looked at his crowd scene photographs, which are about the iraq war and politics, they have have also been very set up and made into a montage which makes them more jokey.

   Crowd scene 2

Crowd scene 1                                                      

These images in crowd scene 2 are gestures that John Goto found in newspapers that George W Bush did.


Here is an example of two.

In the Crowd scene 1 image John Goto got the actors to recreate the expressions of people tortured and suffering in iraq.

Here are some football crowds which show the exaggeration that people have at matches.

   

My idea to relate John Goto's work in my experiments I am thinking of looking up football celebrations by profesional football players and get a friend to recreate each celebration and put them in photoshop to create a montage.

 

Here I have my take on celbrations from profesional football players.  I have editted photos in Photoshop and created this montage over these photos.
